Is it just me or are the media more dumbed down than ever before? The campaign has been frankly spin and dodge for the last six weeks, the G7 are in a tailspin and we are obsessed with redistribution of wealth all of a sudden?
The free market system is underpinned on redistribution of wealth. You pay for schools you may never use, roads you might not drive on and certainly on wars you may not support. It’s all complicit with being part of a modern Western ‘democracy’. Based on the nonsensical views being vented by the GOP at present you’d imagine that before this election we voted where every dollar was spent and that a flat tax rate existed.
Socialism – hardly – but government supported Airlines, Railroads, Schools and Prisons already exist. Yet for some reason socialized medicine is still taboo. (too much profit for the middle man?)
Socialism is so much more than a throwaway sentence – I wish the media would stop pretending this election is the far left against the far right – as the debates proved beyond doubt, you still couldn’t park a hybrid sub-compact between the two parties. We have moderate and mildly right wing.
Socialism is still a generation away – I hope when it is for sale it will be identified correctly.
Please vote next week – for congress and the senate – that’s where change will happen.
